If anyone has any more suggestions, they will be greatly appreciated.</P>

<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Dear All,
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I recently joined this list because I had come across a topic discussed in
<DIV></DIV>>it via Google.com, namely one about semantic prosody. I was just wondering
<DIV></DIV>>if it would be alright to ask any questions about it here on this list, or
<DIV></DIV>>would someone please recommend another list which would be more appropriate.
<DIV></DIV>>I am trying to write my MA paper on Semantic Prosody at the University of
<DIV></DIV>>Latvia.
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Thank you,
